Hutto ISD begins use of data platform

HUTTO — The Hutto Independent School District is introducing data-driven instruction to classrooms this fall with its new high-tech viewing platform.

With Abre, a kindergarten to 12th grade data solutions service, the school district hopes to utilize in-depth student data to inform its teaching practices and improve student achievement, educators said.

“We have this strategic plan now, but we have to use data along the way to make sure what course adjustments we need,” Brittany Swanson, associate superintendent for instruction and innovation, told trustees at a Sept. 12 board workshop meeting.
